I can be anywhere I want--as long as I go to school, come home, and stay homeI can drive as soon as I want--as long as I wait until Im eighteen to even get a permitI can date anytime I want--as long as I turn sixteen before accepting a dateI can date anyone I want--as long as my parents already know him and hes my ageI can talk to anyone I want--as long as I know them already or Mom forces us to be friendsI can stand up for anything I want to--as long as it doesnt go against my parents rules and idealsI can write anything I want to--as long as it fits everyone elses formatsI can have any opinion I want--as long as its the opinion everyone wants me to haveI can say anything I want--as long as its not controversial and Im not swearingI can dress any way I want--as long as its not rebelliously expressiveI can be as rebellious as I want--as long as I dont express it and remain an outer conformistI can practice any religion I want--as long as Im Presbyterian Christian, like my parentsI can create anything I want--as long as my parents see it and ask me probing questions about itI can feel however I want-As long as I appear happy, cheerful, and politeI can do whatever I want in my free time--as long as my parents dont ask me to do something elseI can feel however I want--as long as I keep everything negative bottled up and appear happyI can keep it like that for as long as I want--as long as feelings of resentment dont build up, which they always doI can express how I really feel anytime--as long as its to people who Ive never met, but know how to listen better than anyone.

So really, as you can see, there are no rules to this endless, twisting tangle.But its the rules that dont exist that are hardest to conform to.And I thank everyone here for helping me out whenever I need it.This is dedicated to Autumn, who is the sweetest person here,And who helped me through when I felt choked by nonexistent wires Thank you so much, ~AutumnJoy.
